What Causes Bruising Around The Elbow After An Injury?

I fell down the stairs 1 year ago and had an injured arm near the elbow, but the x-ray and doc said it was not broken. A year later I have an odd nerve feeling in the area and a bruise that comes and goes. It usually bruises after rubbing from the discomfort. Could it have possibly been broken?

Hi,

Actually there might be a blunt trauma over there. You don't have to worry about that. Just take hot fomentation. Or you can apply crepe bandage over your elbow when there is pain. You can also try Homoeopathic treatment for this. In this case ARNICA 30 homeo medicine will give you best results. If there is no swelling on your elbow there is no fracture at all. So don't worry about the fracture.
